In my opinion, yesterday’s announcement that over the next six quarters the Fed would buy MBS was an attempt to talk the market better and is proof that they are not planning to explicitly guaranty the debt. If I were a Foreign Central Bank or Bill Gross, I would want an explicit guaranty vs .gov buying a paltry $100 billion in GSE MBS per quarter. Remember, this $500 billion represents only approximately 10% of the total outstanding GSE mortgage guarantees.
